Sound ideas
Exploring sound and waves doesn’t have to be all about oscilloscopes and diagrams of the ear. It’s a great opportunity for some arts-physics crossover. Here are some resources that I love. Continue reading

Counting bubbles
Recording the rate of photosynthesis by counting bubbles of oxygen being released from the cut stem of some upturned pondweed is a classic experiment (some would say a right of passage) for every biologist.
Recording the rate of photosynthesis by counting bubbles of oxygen being released from the cut stem of some upturned pondweed is a classic experiment (some would say a right of passage) for every biologist. How do we allow our students to enjoy the delights and disappointments of this investigation while teaching remotely? Here’s a possible lockdown solution. Continue reading

Things I can’t believe I don’t need anymore – Garmin eTrex Euro
I still can’t quite believe this day has come. I no longer need a piece of kit that was once a vital tool for my work and have admitted that it is time to say goodbye. But it’s not going in the bin… If you rush to eBay and put in a bid. Continue reading

Which games work in science lessons, and which ones are best left in the box? Find out in my guest post in the Better Science blog.
Today we take it for granted that illustrations can be scanned and digitised, designs created, and high-quality printed materials produced with relative ease. Back in 1991, the idea of using desktop publishing to produce low-cost, responsive signage for a small zoo like Penscynor was quite revolutionary. (via Enclosure labels)

Lenny the land snail was all alone until a group of children decided to help him find a friend, the beginning of an adventure for them all – and for the hundreds of children who came along to a Zoo Centre story session. Check out the page for a copy of the story by Issy and the illustrations by Bernie. (via Lenny the lonely land snail)
In 1992, two Industrial Design students from Carmarthen College of Technology and Art, Stephen Thomas and Gary Orme, were volunteered by their lecturer Mike Whalley to work on a design for a flexible and cost-effective mounting system to display the new signage I was developing for Penscynor Wildlife Park. Their proposed design was fabulous, but perhaps the best thing about their project was the way the chose to document the process, as a comic strip! It's such a shame that I was never able to develop their design. Another project that got pushed to the back burner and never brought back. (via Signage display project)
More colouring-in opportunities from the Penscynor archive
More fabulous colouring in, courtesy of my Penscynor Wildlife Park archive. Download Bernie Ryan’s fabulous rainforest colouring page as a PDF or a PNG you can use in your own documents. The parrot can also be downloaded as a PDF and a PNG. Come on, get colouring!
In the early 1990s the Penscynor education team organised a number of activity days for Scouts and Guides to support the World Conservation Award. A special activity pack and guide for leaders was produced.

How to make a cardboard rainforest for your classroom
Are you running out of things to do while socially distancing? Is your house or flat filling up with cardboard from all the stuff you've been having delivered?Â
Fear not, I have an answer for you... Build a cardboard rainforest like the one Bernie Ryan and I made in the Zoo Centre at Penscynor Wildlife Park. You’ll be pleased to know we made a leaflet that explains everything.

Penscynor Wildlife Park, like many zoos, ran a successful ‘Adopt an animal’ scheme. Adopters received an information sheet about their favourite animal, a certificate, a plaque at the entrance and on the animal’s enclosure, three free visits a year and, at the end of their year, a news sheet updating them with all the latest gossip about their animal. (via Adopt an animal)
The (usually) annual or annual(ish) Penscynor News
The Penscynor news was an occasional publication, the regularity of which depended to a great deal on how busy key staff were on other projects.
Teacher's guides to the animal collection at Penscynor Wildlife Park
A range of teacher’s guides was produced that addressed the KS2/3 curriculum to the animals in the zoo. These allowed teachers to prepare in advance for their visit and ensure that the day at Penscynor linked in with their topic or follow-up lessons.

The Penscynor Fact Packs were written and illustrated by Education Officer Denise Cox
The first Penscynor fact pack ‘Monkey matters‘, produced in the mid-eighties, was followed, towards the end of the decade, by seven more.
The seven new, beautifully illustrated, packs were written and drawn by Education Officer Denise Cox. They were popular with children, families, and teachers and were constantly being reprinted. Despite the wear and tear of being constantly photocopied for over a decade, they still look good. Download PDFs by following the link.
